• Stokes School will transition to in-person attendance for all students when DC enters Stage 4 of the ReOpen DC Plan and there is an effective vaccine or cure for COVID-19.

This is horrifying. Kids are supposed to sit around with their education on hold for potentially months or years, until there's a vaccine or cure? This will be enormously damaging to the kids, their families, and their future.

Here's my plan

1. Open school in August for non-high-risk students/staff with all feasible risk-reduction measures.
2. Provide distance teaching/learning for school employees and kids who are in high-risk categories or who live with people in high-risk categories.
3. Prepare to close individual schools for two weeks in case of covid exposure.[/quote]

It is absolutely horrifying. I'm hoping come mid-August they understand just how ridiculous they are being and/or someone higher up steps in and makes them change it. We have no guarantee for a treatment or vaccine literally ever. This should not be part of the reopening plan at all.[/quote]

Everyone should contact [b]every elected representative they have. The people I have talked to, who don't have kids in school, have no idea there's even the possibility of schools staying closed when the next school year starts[/b].[/quote]

If this is true, we have bigger problems because there are frequent phone conferences for all of the elected officials and the various plans and limitations are being debated. Why aren’t your elected officials calling in? Are they too busy finalizing their Covidpalooza photo ops?[/quote]
